The spa at the Oriental is wonderful.
After your morning spa treatment, enjoy the fantastic lunch buffet here:

i know the spa at the oriental is very good. but the facility at shangri-la is newer. so it's a real dilemma.

I-Sawan is the newest spa and the only cottage spa available in the city of BKK and I think the most nicest one.
Check it out ^

i know i-sawan is the newest hotel spa in bangkok. however i won't be staying at the gh erawan this time. most likely i'll be staying at the oriental.

You won't go wrong with the Oriental. I've only had the opportunity to stay there once (when someone else was paying - it's a bit out of my price range personally!) but I did indulge in the Spa amongst other things. The service is impeccable.
If I had to comment on the difference between the Oriental spa vs (what I've heard about the new spa @ the Shangri-La) I'd say that the Oriental is somewhat more "traditional" with their offerings and service. I imagine the prices are very similar as well - though as with most things, the Oriental may be slightly higher because of all the awards they've garnered over the years (well deserved, I might add)

Correct. The Chi spa at the SL is less expensive.
I have had services at both the MO and SL. Both offer excellent service. The spa at the SL feels like a monastery. It's quite dark inside. For some, that might have a calming effect. For me personally, I prefer the a spa enviroment with a bit of sunlight.
